Quantitative analysis on fault structure in Yuxian Mine Area

Based on mathematical statistics of the data concerning fault structures,the correlation between fault elements and mechanical properties of faults are analyzed.The empirical formulas for relation between drop height and strike length of different types of faults are established,and the distribution regularity of faults in mine area is shown.This paper emphasizes on the significance of slightly dipping reverse faults in the structure framework in Yuxian Mine Area.
